Hi there and welcome to the new subscribers.
* Last Sunday, early in the afternoon rumors about Mr Gary Moore‘s death started. Few hours after, it was sadly confirmed that one of the greatest bluesmen has passed away aged 58, because of a heart attack, while he was on holiday in Spain. A big shock for the whole music world and for those who knew him and got inspiration from his guitarplaying.
The band Europe released the following statement:“No words can describe how sad we feel hearing the news that Gary Moore has passed away. We can’t believe it! It’s a total shock! He was one of our biggest influences both as guitarist and a song writer. Our thoughts and feelings now go to his family and close friends”.
May he rest in peace. http://www.johnnorum.se/news/
